- Polygyny is a common mating system in nature. Which one of the following scenarios is LEAST likely to result in a polygynous mating system? Male stalk-eyed flies form leks where receptive females come visit Male Neotropical giant damselfly defend water-filled tree holes, which are the oviposition sites for females. Suitable tree holes for oviposition are rare and females must mate with the resident male in exchange for access to the oviposition sites. Male Bengal tigers defend large territories that contain food sources. Female Bengal tigers visit male territories to mate. The density of the Bengal tiger is extremely low that male tigers rarely encounter more than one female in their lifetime. In the bumblebee-wolf Philanthus bicinctus, females are unreceptive until they finish constructing the long underground burrow as nest sites. Males search for locations containing a number of newly constructed burrows and attempt to control these sites against the intruders.

- In the species Chinchilla chinchilla, Neotropical crepuscular rodent of the parvorder Caviomorpha, a mating between a homozygous long-tailed chinchilla male and a homozygous short chinchilla female will produce all medium length tail chinchilla offspring. When these medium length tail chinchilla offspring F₁ are mated, their offspring consists of 3 tail-less chinchillas, 24 long-tailed chinchillas, 120 medium-length tailed chinchillas, and 15 short-tailed chinchillas.

Select one: a. Mate them and see what color the offspring are-the other will be the dominant color b. Mate them and see what color the offspring are-that will be the dominant color c. The dominant color could not be determined by mating the two, then mating their offspring; further generations would have to be produced to determine the dominant color d. Mate them together, then mate their offspring to see what color the next generation is-the other color will be the dominant color e.
